Drugstore Makeup Haul

Hi Bellas,

I'm back with another video. This is a haul devoted strictly to drugstore makeup. I found some really great items that I've started using on a regular basis. A lot of these products are great for back to school and I've even stuck some of them in my professional makeup kit.

ELF eyshadow primer $3: Works pretty good on my normal/dry lids...but those with oily lids might have some issues.

Cover Girl Queen Collection Bronzers $6.99: I picked these up because Celebrity Makeup Artist Sam Fine loves them. They're not completely matte, but the shimmer isn't obvious. I actually like them. Great for women of color. I haven't used them on clients yet which is why I bought them, but I tried it on myself and it applies smooth and pigmented.

ELF Beauty Book in Smokey Eyes and Eye Brights $5: I was pleasantly surprised by these palettes. The colors are super pigmented and don't disappear when you blend. They are a bit soft so watch for fall out...and skip the 2 or 3 super glittery shades in the palette because they kinda suck. I've been wearing these palettes every time I go out and I'm loving it.

Milani Infinite Liquid Liner $5.49: If you're looking for a dupe for MAC's liquid last liners this is it. The formula is pretty thick but believe me, it will not budge. I had it on my hand for three days! Wipe the excess off the brush before you apply. Great for crying brides!

There are a bunch of other products I picked up but I couldn't find pictures for them, so you'll have to check out the video! This includes: ELF brushes and Oil Blotting Sheets, NYC Bronzer in Bronze Gold, and Studio Tools Crease Brush.

I've been using these products whenever I apply makeup. This look is the same makeup I rocked in my Avon Hair Blowout vid. I wanted to film a tutorial for it but of course I forgot to press record, lol. You'll find a lot of FOTDs coming up where I use these drugstore palettes. Stay tuned!
